Speeches during the groundbreaking continually emphasized that the UC ex¬ pansion will be a student building. UTSA president Samuel Kirkpatrick pointed out that when the original UC was dedicated in 1986, UTSA had fewer than 10.000 students and about 45 registered student organizations (RSOs). In contrast to this, UTSA currently has over 130 RSOs, which Kirkpatrick attributed to the pres-
VP of student affairs
also will house a 350-seat auditorium, 11 student organization meeting rooms, a 6000 square foot student organization work area, and new locations for the offices of career services, student em¬ ployment, student life, minority affairs, and alumni programs.
Construction on the UC expansion will begin in March and is expected to last about 20 months. When completed, the'expansion will occupy the entire field between the UC and HB.
Construction for the expansion will fence off part of parking lot nine and the field between thc UC, HB and Physical Plant Building. UTSA police advises pedestrians to use altemative walkways along the PE Building, the tennis courts or behind the HB. The front entrance to the UC will remain open during the con-
ence of the UC. Also, Kiikpatrick pre¬ dicted that UTSA will have over 18,000 students and 150 RSOs when the UC expansion opens in 1996.
Vice president of student affairs Bob¬ bie Hemandez expounded on thc theme of the UC expansion promoting student life as well.
"Students were instrumental in com¬ ing together for this project, making thc commitment for UTSA to be a better campus for themselves and for future generations ofstudents by increasing the UC fee to fund this expansion," Heman¬ dez said.
To finance the UC, students voted to create the UC fee in April 1980, and in January 1991 students again voted to fund the UC expansion by increasing the fee to $30 per semester. Kirkpatrick
commended these votes by students as evidence of students' commitment to improving student life.
"Our ability to persuade students and all our constituent groups that sacrifices are really worth making depends upon how well we communicate our growth and development at UTSA and what kind of change that is taking place as the slate's fastest growing university,"kirk¬ patrick said. "The mutual support and """^ trust that is required in partner¬ ships like this are best forged through a common understand¬ ing ofthe past and a shared vision of the future.
"We are all aware oflhe impor¬ tance of a robust student life on campus and the full scope of the university experience that this building helps enable." ;^^ The groundbreaking speeches touted the UC expansion as a way to improve the quality of students' experi¬ ences at UTSA. and this quality was expressed as embodying more opportu¬ nities for student interaction, activities, and services.
"The new UC will be a place where you can attend more student organiza¬ lion meetings; attend symposia, semi¬ nars, concerts, and presentations of all kinds; drop by your student organization office; grab lunch; see a career counse¬ lor; meet with an alumni contact; interact with your student govemment; get a text¬ book; gel your computer fixed; and never leave the building," Hemandez said.
"One has to remember Ihat tho UC is more than just a building—il has the spirit of all who pass through it as they create their whole universiiy experience."

Clinton seeks to restructure Pell Grant
By Charles Devarics
College Press Service
WASHINGTON- TheClintonadmin¬ istration has announced plans lo re¬ structure the Pell Grant program serv¬ ing thousands of American college stu¬ dents and to increase the maximum amount available under the program.
Clinton's fiscal year 1996 budget plan would raise the maximum gram by $280, from $2,340 lo $2,620. How¬ ever, it also would split eligible stu¬ dents into two groups, with those in academic programs seeking aid ihrough Pell and many in vocational programs receiving aid ihrough a new programs at the U.S. Department of Labor.
The restructuring is pari of Clinton' s overall $ 1.61 trillion budget plan, which was unveiled Feb. 6 and outlines $144 billion in cutbacks for deficit reduction and middle-class lax cuts over the next five years.
Under the plan, Clinton has pro¬ posed consolidating 70job training pro¬ grams, mostly from the Departments of Educalion and Labor, and using the money to offer "Skill Grants" to stu¬ dents in vocational, non-degree pro¬ grams. The grant amounts could reach
$2,620, the same amount a.s under Pell.
Adminislration officials call their Skill Grant proposal a fundamental ele¬ ment of the presidium's GI Bill for Ameri¬ can Workers, which seeks lo develop more cost-effective, beller-targeted job training programs.
Thc proposal follows a year of in¬ tense debate in Ihe Clinton administra¬ tion and Ihe higher educalion commu¬ nity about how best to reform sludeni financial aid programs. Reports of abuses by for-profit trade schools who enroll unprepared students in costly, shon-lerm vocational programs has eroded public corifidence in Pell and other financial aid programs, say some educators.
"There's a clear difference between Ihosc in vocational programs and ihose in academic programs," said Arnold Milchem, executive director of Ihe Na¬ tional Council of Educational Opportu¬ nity Associations.
However, some community colleges oppose thc move, saying it would cause major changes for institutions that focus on both academic and vocational pro¬ grams. The plan would dramatically af¬ fecl "who these institutions are," one advocate said.
David Pierce, president oflhc Ameri¬
can Association of Community Col¬ leges, said Ihe proposed change would make administrating grants lo students much tougher and more complex for community colleges.
"Ifone-thirdofPcl I Grants arc shifted to Ihe Skill Grant program, instead of dealing wilh one program, community colleges would deal with two programs and two agencies for the same total number of siudents."
Meanwhile, the increase in thc maxi¬ mum Pell Grant, if approved, would recover lost ground. Since 1992. fund¬ ing for the program has remained rela¬ tively flat.
"The Pell Grant is the basic lifeline to higher educalion for many working families and many Americans wilh low incomes." said U.S. Department of Edu¬ calion Secretary Richard Rilcy in an¬ nouncing the budget blueprint.
Overall, the amount of money bud¬ geted in Pell for degree-seeking stu¬ dents would increase by almost $700 million, the budjiel plan states As a result, an estimated 2.8 million stu¬ dents would receive g*rant awards in 1996. up from 2.7 million Ihis year.

Mr. and Ms. UTSA elected this week
By Sara Hawkins
Campus Coordinator
"The orquesta represents Mexican- Americans attempting to come to grips, attempting to attack, to accommodate, to acculturate to American society." This message was given by Manuel Pefla, Ph.D. professor of anthropology and Mexican-American studies at UT Austin in a lecture entitled, "Notes on Music in the Post-Chicano Era" on Feb. 16. The lecture is from the epilogue of his book. The Mexican-American Orquesta.
The orquesta is based on the Mexican orchestra combined with the American big band and according to Pefta resolves "a dialectal conflict between the Anglo- American and the Mexican-Americans." The music has a highly bicultural charac¬ ter toil. "The orquesta attempts to juggle the cultural contradictions that attend the Mexicans' experience in the Southwest."
Within the music can be found a type of code switching, or what Pefia called "compound bilingualism or'Spanglish'." This is when a person starts out- in En¬ glish and switches to Spanish and then back to English.
Pefla also referred to orquesta music as "high tone," which is a word that was
invented by Mexican Americans in the Southwest to refer to "high falooiin, pre¬ tentious or high class Mexican American rancheros," Pefla said.
In the 1930s the orquesta became what it is known as today in the Mexican- American society. According to Pefla, "their mission as articulated in the LULAC code was to become American but to also to be partly Mexican." In this atmosphere the orquesta becomes an ex¬ pression of Mexican American roots.
From 195510 1985, orquesta entered a new "Chicano" phase, just as the Mexi¬ can American generation entered ils new phase. "By 1970s the orquesta has en¬ tered a new phase called 'La Una Chk mo.' It was very much affected by the environment in which it was prolifer¬ ated, that is to say the Chicano generation environment," Pefia said.
Pefia,also read extensively from his epilogue conceming the synthesizer in the use of creating Cojunto Chicano music. Ue said conceming the interna¬ tionalization of Cojunto music, "Trans¬ formed from Chicano to international, they [Cojunto music] run the risk of los¬ ing their organic community. When Ihe music loses its power at the same tin:, j the Chicano movement loses its power."
As part of the UTSA Homecoming festivities, the election of Mr. and Ms. UTSA lakes place this week. The vot¬ ing begins today and continues through Wednesday, from 9 a.m. to7p.m.atthe JPL and UC information desks, and from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. al the Cypress Tower information desk.
